A decent enough point.

Had a tenner on a Sunderland win and a Villa draw £70 thankyou very much!

Anyone else put money on Sunderland it was odds on they were going to win today.

It could have been worse I suppose.
We are still not safe.

Pretty poor performance, like most of the season.

Point not too bad after going behind.

More insipid than inspiring, but a point's a point. Stoke's style of spoiling football is a disgrace.

We're safe. Stoke made it tough for us. We dont have much imagination going forward but we've got a decent striker in Darren Bent. Not much more to say really.

Stoke's one of those games like Bolton used to be a few years back. You just want it out of the way. Ugly team to play against and watch, but I don't really begrudge them that. They use what is at their disposal efficiently. We got a point, big game next weekend now. If we can do the Albion I'll be well happy.

On a par with the Wolves game performance wise. We can't deal with teams who don't try and play.  We'll probably beat the Albion and Wigan because they don't (cliche alert) park the bus so we have a bit more room.   

I am so glad that I din't pay to watch that and even more glad that I don't come from Stoke.

We are still not safe.

we're only in danger if you believe that we won't won't get 1 more point this season, and the likes of West Ham, Blackpool, Wigan, Blackburn, Wolves, Blues all suddenly find a rich vein of form. That isn't going to happen.
